In short: Excellent challenge for beginnersIn full: This was only my 2nd ever 10k race and its flat terrain allowed me a PB time. It was well organised and much of the route is set in the beautiful Elvaston Park and surrounds. I'm looking forward to next year's event already. Date of review: June 6, 2011

In short: A very well organised race in delightful surroundings with a friendly atmosphere!In full: First time at a smaller club race and I have to say I was very impressed. The organisation of the race was fabulous with plenty of friendly, encouraging marshalls along the route. The route was in itself very flat and there is excellent opportunity to clock yourself a personal best without fail. It was of multi terrain consisting of tarmac, gravel type paths and some cobbles up near the castle. This is definitely on my racing calendar for next year. Well done to all involved in organising the race for us to enjoy, you did yourselves proud. Date of review: June 5, 2011
